Unwind in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on a nature-filled getaway with your small family or partner, and your beloved canine companion. Spend your days exploring Apedale Valley and nearby World Heritage Sites before returning to this charming converted barn boasting a mix of contemporary and original features.

Make yourself at home in the spacious and bright open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with a wooden-beamed ceiling and neutral-toned decor. Natural light floods in through the patio doors into the lounge area where two plump sofas benefit from garden views. Next to this is a sleek, glass dining table with contemporary chairs. The stylish black and white ‘U’-shaped kitchen contains a convenient dishwasher and washing machine. Upstairs are two cosy double bedrooms with wooden beamed ceilings – one with an en-suite shower room and the other with an en-suite bathroom and a Juliette balcony. Outside you’ll find a lawned garden with a patio and furniture.

Set tails wagging as you explore the surrounding 120 acres of farmland on which the property is located, during your stay in the small village of Rushbury. Visit the National Trust Wilderhope Manor house (3.5 miles) or Flounders' Folly (7.5 miles) for a history fix.

Excellent cottage. Quality fittings and very well furnished. 3 bed cottage for rent next door would make great accommodation for a larger group. Very friendly owners, if we go back to Shropshire will not bother looking at anything else, just re book

This is a lovely cottage in a great location, with off-road parking and a small, private outdoor space. Having two bathrooms makes it really special. Plenty to see and do within a small radius. Would thoroughly recommend.
